I see you are not willing to post your batting score?
There's a reason I took up bowling... Caught at point on seven, didn't realise how hard it is to roll ur wrists on a ball with only ur left hand
Is there a doctor in the forum?

So glad there's already a thread for this..
Two Saturdays ago a mate's g/f blew....... two tyres and he was off camping in the mountains so I went to help her out. In a hurry to get my jack and chassis stands I was walking out of the shed carrying too much and the centre piece slid out of one of the chassis stands.
Fortunately my safety thongs broke the 1kg steel bar's 3 foot fall, and my man-grunt alleviated the immediate pain quite nicely.
The cut was really deep so I put a bandaid on it and went to sort out her car. It bled quite a lot so I put a second bandaid on and went for a 3.6km run. I really pushed it to pace at 6:13 kilometres, and this surprisingly bought out quite a bit of blood, so I threw the sock away.
Now it's 10 days later and while I have full movement of the toe it is very sensitive to touch. Reckon I might have tweaked something?

If you never type anything again, you deserve a knighthood for services to comedy for this line alone.
is possible, there was probably some grease on the steel bar... I put some dettol on it the next day though

Moses, that is one of the greatest posts ever written here my friend.
It has comedy and ridiculous manliness in the same package. Well played Sir.

I am working out how to prescribe "man-grunt" to my patients in lieu of analgesics.
When you dorsiflex (i.e. pull up the big toe) against resistance (push down with a finger) can the toe hold or does it cause pain or weakness of the toe? You may have partly mashed the EHL tendon. It will usually fix itself. You may have chipped the bone - no big deal, it will fix itself but be sore for several weeks.
You may just have a small superficial skin infection too - if getting redder, get some antibiotics.

Thanks cyclo, I can dorsiflex and "reverse dorsiflex" as hard as I can without pain. I can also bend the toe as far as it will go - when I bend it to full extension and push it down with a finger it hurts a little but I think that is just tightness across the injury. It's only when I touch directly on the red bit that it really hurts - sounds like there's no point in an x-ray so I'll just keep an eye on the redness and if it gets worse find some anti-biotics. Might need some of them next week anyway as I'm going to Africa and their meant to be good for Malaria..
I'm waaaaay more expensive than that.
GAGR budget blown for 2012 I'm afraid.

Swat I'm no doc (I just have Army med experience) but just this Saturday gone I saw that exact same type of colouring on my mates pinky who went & got it checked & it turns out she's broken her finger. I don't know if she had dislocated it before hand but it looked similar to yours.
If it were me I'd get it checked, even if it's nothing it's better to be sure.

That would equal making a 100 on the 5th day of a cricket test on the sub continents dirt road pitches with guys running in at you who can spin a bill on glass
